Analysis of Global Scope
I looked into the mirror and saw a global face
I looked a little deeper and saw the human race
I looked into the mirror and saw a global gain
I looked a little deeper and saw the human pain
I looked into the mirror and saw a global war
I looked a little deeper and saw the human gore
I looked into the mirror and saw a global greed
I looked a little deeper and saw the human need
I looked into the mirror and saw a global thaw
I looked a little deeper and saw the human flaw
I looked into the mirror and saw a global sign
I looked a little deeper and saw the human line
I looked into the mirror and saw a global ill
I looked a little deeper and saw the human will
I looked into the mirror and saw a global scope
I looked a little deeper and saw the human hope
